Synopsis "Honor at Last"

History honors the Navaho CodeTalkers who helped the US military win World War II against the Japanese. Unknown to many, at the same time in Alaska, Alaska Natives, men and women, old and young, signed up to serve in the Alaska Territorial Guard or ATG. This book is based on the true story of Sonny who lived without honor or recognition for his military service in the ATG. It is the story of a boy who became a soldier during his formative years. Sonny was 12 years old when he became a Guard with his father. He trained to fight for his country with full Army gear. After the war, he was forced to adapt to a life of hard work, racism, and misunderstanding. He draws on his experience to survive. When Sonny faces the end of his life, in Yupik tradition, he goes home. He reflects on his life and makes peace with his experiences. Sonny's estranged daughter, Bun, buries her father. She felt empty. Decades later, when the Army moves to discharge the members of the ATG, Bun files paperwork for Sonny. At last, her father is given honor for his life of service.
